In loving memory of their mother, Marie P. DeBartolo, San Francisco 49ers Owner Denise DeBartolo York and her brother, Edward J. DeBartolo Jr., dedicated the team’s training facility and office complex to her in August of 1988.

Situated on an 11-acre site in Santa Clara, CA (approxi-mately 40 miles south of Candlestick Park), the complex provides players, coaches and staff with all the necessary components for daily practices, weekly game preparations and general overall operations in one functional, state-of-the-art setting.

From its master blueprint to the smallest of details, the fa-cility exemplifies the DeBartolos’ strive for perfection and drive for superiority. It also reflects their dedication to the organization and first-class standard for operating pro-cedures.

Two natural grass practice fields with underground drain-age and watering systems allow for workouts in all Northern California weather conditions. A synthetic turf practice field from Sportexe was installed in 2006 to maximize the team’s versatility and safety on different playing surfaces. The field turf also enables the 49ers to make a smooth transition for practice if the natural grass becomes unusable due to in-clement weather.

MARIE P. DEBARTOLO SPORTS CENTREA two-story, 52,000 square foot building (more than three times the space the 49ers had at their previous location in Redwood City) houses all administrative and coaching offices with the exception of the ticket office and stadium operations.

The ground floor contains a spacious locker room area with 60 permanent lockers and allocations for extra (portable) lockers to be used during mini-camps and training camp when squads are larger.

A well-equipped weight room and training area downstairs accommodates both preventative and rehabilitative condi-tioning. A 30-by-40-foot hydro-therapy indoor swimming pool is also available.

Also located downstairs are numerous meeting rooms, each featuring a digital projection unit, allowing players and coaches the opportunity to analyze previous games, prac-tice sessions and upcoming opponents.

Media facilities including a 120-seat auditorium and con-ference room (wired for live television broadcasts from the site), make the set-up ideally suited for weekly press conference coverage and daily reporting duties. Located just outside the weight room is a canopied patio area used for team meals, press luncheons and other team-related activities.


Throughout the 49ers 60-plus year his-tory, the Club has shared a commitment to its faithful fans and the community.

To further this objective, in 2006, the 49ers took a stand in the community advocating the value of respect through a new outreach campaign created to target youth in the Bay Area.

The Respect Campaign leverages the power of the 49ers brand, its player and coaches to share the importance of respect and its central role in helping young people become good community citizens.

As part of the campaign, members of the 49ers organization take part in a vari-ety of community events to reach out to youth and impart the value of respect in three important areas of their lives: families, schools and communities.

Making an Impact through Community OutreachEach year, the 49ers players, coaches and staff participate in more than 170 community activities and events, con-tributing more than 3,500 hours of volunteer time in the

San Francisco Bay Area. Through these events, more than 327,000 people are impacted by the 49ers community out-reach efforts, including over 38,000 children.

SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS FOUNDATIONThe San Francisco 49ers Foundation, founded in 1991, is the non-profit community funding arm of the San Fran-cisco 49ers. The 49ers Foundation supports development programs for underserved youth that keep them safe, on track and in school. A significant portion of its funding goes toward family violence prevention programs and activities that teach youth leadership and respect.

Through the leadership of 49ers team Owners Denise and John York, the 49ers Foundation has donated more than $8 million over the last seven years to non-profits throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.

Celebrity Winter & Wine Fest

Since its inception in 2001, the 49ers Foundation Celebrity Winter & Wine Fest is one of the premier fundraising events for the 49ers Foundation. Squaw Valley comes alive dur-ing the three-day event that includes a ski race between Olympians and attendees, 49ers Coaching Chalk Talks, mingling with the coaches, players, ownership and alumni, silent and live auctions, cooking demonstrations, live music and great wine and food. Corporations and individuals are able to purchase sponsorship packages to participate in the festivities. Since 2001, this exclusive event has raised more than $4.3 million for the 49ers Foundation.

Cadence Stars & StrikesThe Stars & Strikes bowling tournament is one of the largest community events of its kind in Silicon Valley. The annual fundraising effort between the 49ers Foundation and Ca-dence Design Systems, Inc., the world’s leading electronic design software provider, raises funds to support charitable causes in the Bay Area community. The 49ers lend their star power by involving current and former players. Since its inception in 1990, Stars & Strikes has raised more than $10 million to support Silicon Valley nonprofit organizations meeting critical community needs, including the Fisher House Foundation, Children’s Discovery Museum, and the San Jose Conservation Corps and the Bill Wilson Center.

Celebrity Crab Cracking on Union SquareOnce a year, San Francisco celebrates its beloved icon from the sea, the Dunge-ness crab, with the Celebrity Crab Cracking event in Union Square. As part of the event, the 49ers Founda-tion, along with members of the 49ers, team up with local chefs to demonstrate the art and intricacies of cracking a crab. Demonstrations are followed by a timed cracking and clean-ing contest with local San Francisco celebrities. Food, wine and beer are available. All proceeds from the event benefit the 49ers Foundation.

Pasta BowlThe San Francisco 49ers, in partnership with the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, host the annual “Pasta Bowl,” a family-style dinner event that takes place dur-ing training camp each summer. The entire 49ers team and top Silicon Val-ley CEOs serve as celebrity waiters and dinner guests for each of the sponsored tables, providing a unique opportunity for corporations and the community. In addition, executives have the opportu-nity to pair up with the 49ers player to

COMMUNITY RELATIONS RESPECT FOR FAMILIESRespect RimIn 2006, the team began the sale of the Respect Rim base-ball cap. One-hundred percent of the proceeds from the sale of the Respect Rim go to the 49ers Foundation in sup-port of the San Francisco Domestic Violence Consortium and Partners Ending Domestic Abuse, which is dedicated to eliminating domestic violence and ensuring the basic rights of safety, self-determination and well-being to victims and survivors of domestic violence and their children. Tens of thousands of dollars have been raised to support the cause since 2006.

Holiday GivingDuring the holiday season, 49ers players and significant others, alumni and staff come together to deliver food and holiday trimmings to families in need throughout the Bay Area. Partnering with the San Francisco Food Bank, Turn-ing Wheels for Kids, InnVision and City Team Ministries, the 49ers are able to make the holidays a little brighter for the recipients.

RESPECT FOR SCHOOLS

Community Tuesdays in Schools During the season, the players participate in community projects on Tuesdays. In 2008, a significant number of these projects focused on building respect for schools. They ranged from reading to school children, assisting with the

construction of a new playground, educating youth about the benefits of solar power, and more. One highlight was a new program that was created in partnership with the Bring Me a Book Foundation - “Kindergarten Kickoff.” Through Kindergarten Kickoff, the San Francisco 49ers and the 49ers Foundation imparted their passion for reading by donating $10,000 to support new bookcase libraries for each of the kindergarteners. After unveiling the libraries, the players read books to the kindergarteners and helped them create handmade books focusing on the theme of respect.

Revamping RecessPart of ensuring students’ success in school involves creat-ing safe places for them to play and engage in social in-teractions. To support this objective, the 49ers created the “Revamping Recess” program where they helped construct safe playgrounds and provided carts filled with new recess and sporting equipment for youth in underserved commu-nities.

49ers AcademySince opening in 1996, the 49ers Academy in East Palo Alto has re-ceived ongo-ing support from the 49ers organ iza t ion .

RESPECT FOR COMMUNITIES

Community TuesdaysEvery Tuesday during the football season, 49ers players participate in community activities to demonstrate re-spect for our community, schools and families. Community Tuesdays are designed to raise awareness of the charitable activities of 49ers players, while highlighting the services and support provided by non-profit organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area. These activities range from school and hospital visits to neighborhood beautification projects and holiday giving.

49ers Fitness ZonesThe goal of 49ers Fitness Zones is to promote the impor-tance of youth fitness. In partnership with the Good Tidings Foundation, who manage renovations, Kelly-Moore Paints, who provides all materials to paint, and Pacific Athletic Club, who donate the sports equipment, the 49ers create 49ers Fitness Zones around the San Francisco Bay Area. Com-munity volunteers, 49ers players and staff work together, in a hands-on way, to create areas where youth learn about and practice fitness.

Hometown Huddle Hometown Huddle is a partnership between all 32 NFL teams and the United Way. Each year, the 32 teams work with a local United Way agency on a select day to partici-pate in a community service project. Past 49ers Hometown Huddle activities have included 49ers players painting over graffiti in San Francisco’s historic Chinatown district, re-furbishing the ropes course area at Camp Arroyo, install-ing playground equipment at local parks and performing a complete renovation of the Precita Valley Community Center in the Mission District of San Francisco.

Red and Gold Community ProgramFor the fifth year, the San Francisco 49ers offer the Red and Gold community program. This opportunity is open to orga-nizations that provide positive alternatives for at-risk youth in the San Francisco Bay Area. Non-profit organizations apply to receive up to 46 free tickets for their organization to attend a 49ers preseason or regular season home game.

Bayview/Hunters Point YMCAThe Bayview/Hunters Point YMCA is supported by the entire 49ers organization from the top down. Ownership, players, alumni, coaches and staff frequently visit the center, do-nate tickets to the youth and financially support the YMCA’s programs. Most recently, the 49ers Foundation pledged $250,000 over a five-year period to assist with the overall renovation of their newly acquired facility on Lane Street.

Hunters Point Boys & Girls Club The establishment of the new Bayview/Hunter’s Point Boys & Girls Club on Hunter’s Point Hill is a true city-wide part-nership that involves branches of government, including the Mayor’s Office, the City Attorney and the San Francisco Po-lice Department, and both San Francisco sports franchises, the 49ers and the Giants. The new facility has significantly expanded recreational opportunities for youth in one of the most underserved neighborhoods in the Bay Area.

49ers Half Time Shows (September through December) Throughout the regular season the 49ers hold a series of community-related half time shows. Some of the events celebrate the diverse culture of the Bay Area, while others promote youth football and raise awareness of social issues such as domestic violence.

49ers Stadium Drives

(September through December) Throughout the regular season, the Club requests fans and game attendees to make generous contributions of items such as clothing, food, toys, books and cell phones. These gameday collection drives benefit deserving charitable or-ganizations in the Bay Area such as Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Clara and San Mateo, San Francisco Food Bank, Operation Dream, Silicon Valley Boys & Girls Club, One Warm Coat and the San Francisco Police Activities League.

49ers ATLAS & ATHENA SchoolsThe San Francisco 49ers have partnered with five local high schools to implement the NFL ATLAS (Adolescents Training and Learning to Avoid Steroids) & ATHENA (Athletes Tar-geting Healthy Exercise and Nutrition Alternatives) Schools Program, a nationally-acclaimed initiative designed to pro-mote healthy living and reduce the use of steroids and other drugs among high school athletes.

T.H.I.N.K. (Training Health Inspiration Nutrition Knowledge) GOLDThe San Francisco 49ers are committed to encouraging youth to participate in outdoor recreational activities and sports in a healthy manner that excludes the use of non-nutritional enhancements. As part of this long-standing commitment, the 49ers support the NFL’s Play 60, What Moves U, and Join the Team initiatives as well as the ATLAS and ATHENA program. For the past two years, the 49ers have developed programming to support these initiatives.

In 2009, the 49ers hosted an event in cooperation with the Bay Area Women’s Sports Initiative (BAWSI) and the Bay Area Women’s Professional Soccer (WPS) team – FC Gold Pride. The event is designed exclusively for female high school athletes and included a series of seminars, on-field strength and conditioning drills, and an opportunity to meet members of the 49ers and professional female athletes.

Candlestick Helmet DisplayThe 49ers invite Northern California high school football programs to join in a unique opportunity at Candlestick Park. As a tribute to the importance of high school foot-ball programs and the outstanding life skills that they teach young people, the 49ers created a three dimensional mural made up of helmets from Northern California high school football programs. If your high school would like to have its helmet included in the display, please mail the helmet to San Francisco 49ers – Attn. Ryan Myers, 4949 Centennial Boulevard, Santa Clara, CA 95054.

STADIUM INFORMATION


STADIUM HISTORY49ERS STADIUM–KEZAR STADIUM

(1946-1971)

For 24 seasons, Kezar Stadium was the back drop that il-luminated the tradition of the San Francisco 49ers. In 1922, $100,000 was accepted from the estate of Mary A. Kezar to erect a memorial to her mother and relatives. Once the San Francisco Park Commission accepted these funds and approved an additional $200,000 to build a new stadium, the dream began. The first event ever held at Kezar was a 2-mile race between Willie Ratola and the World’s greatest distant runner at the time, Pavo Nurmi of Finland on May 2, 1925. Two world championship fights starring Jackie Fields vs. Young Corbett in 1932 and Rock Marciano vs. Don Cockell in 1955 were held at Kezar. Early on during the 1930s other events such as motorcycle races, rugby, soccer, lacrosse and auto racing took place at Kezar, but the 49ers would ultimately become synonymous with the legendary stadium when they moved their operation into its walls. The 49ers first contest was against the New York Yan-kees on September 8, 1946. One tier of bleachers that could hold 59,942 was filled with fans ready to see the red and gold jerseys sprinkle the field. Although the 49ers lost the contest 21-7, this was a good sign of the things to come for the city of San Francisco. Twenty four years later the 49ers ended their run in the stadium on a high note. On January 3, 1971 the 49ers played their last contest at Kezar against the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC Championship game.

CANDLESTICK PARK(1971-present)

During the late 1950s San Francisco Mayor George Christo-pher envisioned a stadium in San Francisco. The only thing missing was the team. Both the Brooklyn Dodgers (MLB) and the New York Giants (MLB) decided to move to the West Coast. The Giants chose San Francisco and the Dodgers opted to go to Los Angeles. That move put the wheels in motion and the stadium was set to be built at Candlestick point, located near the San Francisco Bay. After it was built the stadium was named Candlestick Park, because of its location. The Giants made their highly celebrated debut on April 12, 1960 against the St. Louis Cardinals. Vice President Richard Nixon threw out the first pitch, christening it as the “finest ballpark in America.” From then on history would be made at the fog-filled ballpark resting on the Bay. On May 4, 1966 Willie Mays broke the all-time home run record there and on July 18, 1971 he got his 3,000th hit at “The Stick.” Five months later the 49ers made their debut at Can-dlestick against the Los Angeles Rams. Through the years they have made right of Nixons’ slogan. Candlestick is the only stadium in the country to have hosted six NFC Cham-pionship Games, three Western Division Championships, 12 NFC West Conference Games, two World Series, and two All-Star games. After several years of weathering the Bay Area’s brutal winds, Candlestick Park began deteriorating. The mayor pro-posed for a new $50 million stadium. Although the city didn’t grant him the new stadium, they did spend over $16.1 million stadium renovations and improvements. The seating capacity increased from 45,000 seats to 59,000 and the Astroturf was replaced with real grass. The Giants and 49ers shared Candlestick Park until the 1999 MLB season when the Giants made the move to AT&T Park. In 1995, Candlestick was renamed 3 Com Park after 3 Com Corp. bought the naming rights. Six years later, 3 Com park was renamed Candlestick Park only to be bought by Monster Cable Products Inc. The stadium was then renamed Monster Park in 2004, before being renamed once again to Candlestick Park in 2008.
